A city in the territory of Issachar where Elisha was regularly fed and sheltered by a wealthy woman of the household. When that woman's son died, Elisha raised him back to life, making Shunem a place of resurrection and mercy. The city also appears in earlier narratives and was a gathering place for Israel's forces, holding significance both domestic and strategic.
